Now to one of the most talked about cars around at the moment. The 2009 Nissan GT-R.

Nissan claim that the GTR is a multi-dimensional performance machine that lives up to the concept of “an ultimate supercar for anyone, anytime, anywhere.”

The all new Premium Midship platform comes into play for the first time, enabling the use of the world’s first independent rear-axle ATTESA E-TS all-wheel drive system.

The carbon fibre and aluminium construction houses a 3.8 litre twin turbo V6 producing a whopping 480 horsepower and 430 foot pounds of torque. The engine runs with a GR6 sequential dual clutch rear transaxle, with paddle shifting, rolls 20 inch wheels, and stops with big Brembo brakes.

Up close, the GTR is one impressive machine with an aggressive, muscular stance.

It will be on sale in the U.S. in June.
